There's no other way to say it babyI gotta let you know just what I feelWe've had better days than what's been happening latelyI don't wanna walk awayBut I gotta be real with youAnd I've heard you say you're gonna changeBut I'm afraid that it's too lateIt's too lateIt's too late

You're more than just a friend to me babyAnd I won't do you wrong no matter what's going onAnd though I feel the need to leave it pains meRight down to my bones the hurt is so strongAnd I've heard you say you're gonna changeBut I'm afraid it's too lateIt's lateOh, I believe that it's too lateIt's too lateIt's too late

Chorus:I'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can doI'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do

I've spent days and nights contemplatingOver you and me and the road I'm takingAnd I hope in the end that you won't hate me

I know you feel the same if you'd only face itAnd I've heard you say you're gonna changeBut I'm afraid that it's too lateIt's too lateOh, I believe that it's too lateIt's too lateIt's too late

Chorus:I'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do(That I can do, yeah)I'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do(I can do)I'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do(I can do)I'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can doI'm giving you the best of meThe best it's trueBut I can't get the best from youSo I guess goodbye is the best thing I can do(The best that I can do)
